Were they worth it? How was the finish? Thinking of getting some of their 6-pots.

Pretech are supposed to be better, and IIRC are slightly cheaper.

And they are based in Reading!

This is going back a good 15 years but I ran a Z1000 for a few months with a set of Harrison 4 pots on, they came and went with the bike. Seemed fine in terms of build quality, they were a few years old and showed no real signs of corrosion, machining quality was good. Braking performance was a big improvement on stock although that's not hard with the bike in question Laughing
